CVE-2024-53094

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

RDMA/siw: Add sendpageok() check to disable MSGSPLICE_PAGES

While running ISER over SIW, the initiator machine encounters a warning from skbsplicefromiter() indicating that a slab page is being used in sendpage. To address this, it is better to add a sendpageok() check within the driver itself, and if it returns 0, then MSGSPLICE_PAGES flag should be disabled before entering the network stack.

A similar issue has been discussed for NVMe in this thread: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240530142417.146696-1-ofir.gal@volumez.com/
